Afflictions Of The Heart

Better Together

The day finally came for them to return home from their honeymoon. The last couple of days Lucius had been on edge and taking the extra pent up aggression on her during sex so she was feeling quite sore but loved every second of it. Ivy was moving slowly as she packed her bags, she had a frown plastered across her face. She didn't want the honeymoon to end but they had been there for 14 days.

Lucius entered the room and noticed the frown on her face, "kitten? What's wrong?" He asked curiously. She looked up from her suitcase, "just sad to be leaving is all" she sighed folding some articles of clothing and placing them into her suitcase neatly. He walked over to her gently turning her to face him, "we can come back princess, we've been here for two weeks and salazar knows what's waiting for us back at home. I am sure Narcissa has reached out to Draco and I can only imagine how he is feeling" Lucius said with a stressed expression.

Ivy knew he was right she could only imagine how poor Draco was feeling. She reached up to cup his cheek, "you've been extra stressed lately, I only know that because you've been extra aggressive during sex lately. You need to relax, it's affecting your sleep as well. I'm worried" she expressed her concern. He took a deep breath and looked down at his wife, her fair skin was littered with marks of his affection, he hadn't realized how truly rough he had been with her lately.

His fingers traced over a few visible bruises with a frown, "I have been more rough with you haven't I?" His brow furrowed. "I don't mind, I can take it. I just know how negatively stress can affect you, I'm worried." She explained. He pulled her gently into his chest and pressed his face into her hair inhaling her scent. "It's not fair of me to be pushing you to your limits, yes I am stressed. It's just hard because I know how manipulative Narcissa can be and who knows what lies she's fed Draco. I just got my relationship with him back to a good place, I don't need her going and fucking that up again!" He scowled.

She held his face in her hands forcing him to look her in the eye, "listen, what ever happens we will do it together. You aren't alone in this anymore, I am your wife, Draco is my best friend he will listen. It might be hard but we can do it together. As for you taking your aggression out on me, don't feel bad, it's been beyond enjoyable. I don't mind a few bumps and bruises. You know I like it rough" she smirked.

He chuckled, "you are a little whore aren't you?" He mused with a sly grin. "Only for you" she nodded. Leaning down he kissed her deeply, "I love you, thank you." He said as he pulled away. "No need to thank me, now I need to finish packing or we are going to be late" she giggled. "Well I'll leave you to it, a Malfoy is never late" he chuckled before leaving the room.

It took her a bit to make sure all her belongings were packed away and she had everything. She sighed looking around the room before pulling the suitcase off the bed and dragging it into the hall. Almost immediately Lucius appeared, "excuse me, what exactly do you think your doing?" He said coming to grab the suitcase from her. "It's just my suitcase I can carry it" she said. "It's far to heavy for you, you need to allow me to get it" he said lifting it.

She chuckled and shook her head following after him, "yes daddy" she replied innocently. He chuckled at her response and brought her suitcase downstairs to the front door where Paulo was waiting to take it out to the town car. She hadn't realized that the car was already there to bring them to the airport and she frowned again, she thought she had at least a little bit more time before having to leave.

She stood in the grand foyer of the estate and looked around with a sigh, she knew she would be back soon but she loved it here. As much as she loved being a wizard, living a week out in the muggle world was amazing. It was calming and it also relaxed Lucius he had no worries of being judged on the streets here. Back at home there was still a lot of prejudice against him, when he wasn't given time to serve in Azkaban there were riots. People wanted him to burn for his mistakes, she could remember the chaos like it was yesterday.
